On Friday, January 23, 2026, Secretary of State Marco Rubio spoke with Prime Minister Alix Fils-Aimé to reaffirm the United States' support for Haiti's stability and security. Rubio emphasized the importance of Fils-Aimé remaining as Prime Minister to combat terrorist groups and stabilize the country. Rubio added that the Presidential Transitional Council must be dissolved on February 7, without corrupt actors attempting to obstruct Haiti's transition to an elected government for their own gain. He reiterated that the United States will ensure that corrupt politicians who support terrorist groups and sow terror in Haiti face the consequences.
